Hi everybody. I am a new salsa student and I am just wondering the best salsa place to dance in toronto that is good for new dancers. I feel a little shy attending regular clubs. Can some one recommend something? thanks you!

Thanks - a few people have recommended it so I will definitely try that practice session. Vincezio also mentioned it. ANd outings are good for me to so I will attend those. Do you have to ask men to dance or do they ask you? That is the scary part! Never asked anyone to dance before.

Salsa Newbie, you will really enjoy going to Toronto Salsa Practice - there is always a friendly crowd there. This weekend, it was packed! It was the 6th year anniversary of practice...

It is an easy-going crowd, so yes, there will be men there who will ask you, but you can ask them too! I understand how intimidating it can be to ask someone to dance...it took me a long time to get the nerve to ask someone outside of my circle of friends, but what an experience it can be dancing with someone new!

The worst the guy can say is no...and if he does turn you down, there are plenty more men out there to choose from! If you are still a bit scared, just stand on the side of the dancefloor with a smile as you watch the other dancers and surely someone will catch the vibe that you want to dance...a smile goes a long way, trust me - guys get scared to ask girls too, so if you look approachable, they will ask.
